Answer:
Number of pineapples= 10
number of pears = 19
number of kiwis = 10 -2 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of a pear = $ 0.50
Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5
cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3
Let the pineapples = p
Number of pears = 9 + p
Number of kiwis = p - 2
The cost is
0.15 p + 0.5 (9 + p) + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.50
0.15 p + 4.5 + 0.5p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.50
0.95 p = 9.6
p = 10
Answer:
B has a smaller initial population of 500
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for complete question
Required
The bacteria with the smaller initial population
The initial population is at x = 0
For bacteria A;
when 
For bacteria B, we have:

Substitute 0 for x



So; when x = 0
and 
Because; 500 < 600
We can conclude that B has a smaller initial population of 500
The answer to the question
62.50 * .18 = $11.25
Add tip-
11.25 + 62.50 = 73.75
Total - $73.75
